Chivas USA returned for Day 5 of preseason camp to complete their fourth double-day session beginning at 10 a.m. at the StubHub Center's Field 6. Led by Head Coach Wilmer Cabrera and his staff, the Red-and-White kicked off the morning with a team jog around the pitch before completing a series of agility and resistance exercises at short distance for additional warm-ups and to increase the heart rate.

The squad then broke out into three groups for a five-against-three ball possession drill in reduced space. With five teammates around the perimeter of the drill, the players looked to maintain control of the ball from the group of three located on the inside. Meanwhile, the defensive players defended their respective zones and rotated to assist their teammate to try and intercept a pass.

After completing the preliminary preparations, the team was then split into two drills at each half of the pitch. The group located at the near end of Field 6 worked on distribution and finishing drills in the final third with a goalkeeper in goal. With assistant coaches leading the drill, the play would build up from just inside midfield to generate a cross into the box from both sides one after another.

On the opposite end of the field, the other half of the squad competed in a five-on-four drill. With five attackers headed toward goal, a four-man back line would organize and try to prevent any scoring while Cabrera and First Assistant Paul Caffrey instructed the group. Afterwards, the two groups switched sides on the pitch to complete the same work.

Soon after, the Goats reunited for final stretches and a cool-down period and break before reporting for the complementary part of double-day duties, which consisted of gym training. The Red-and-White will return on Saturday to close out their first week of camp at the SHC.
